Clear packing tape or cellophane tape was invented in the 1920s by 3M employee Dick Drew. After years of experimenting with the tape, in 1930 Drew ironed out all the kinks and developed a working tape that would go on to be almost a necessity in today's world.
No, it is quite different. Packing tape is usually clear strong vinyl tape with fibreglass string embedded in it -you can see the fibres. Duct tape is a close knit cotton fabric with adhesive on one side and poly on the other. Duct tape rips easily, packing tape does not - it needs scissors or a very sharp knife.

ADHESIVE TAPERichard G. Drew (1899-1980) invented masking tape and clear adhesive tape (also called cellophane tape or Scotch tape). Drew was an engineer for the 3M company (the Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing). Drew's first tape invention was a masking tape made for painters in 1923 (this tape was designed to help painters paint a straight border between two colors). This early masking tape was a wide paper tape with adhesive on only the edges of the tape - not in the middle. Drew made an improved tape called Scotch (TM) Brand Cellulose Tape in 1930. This tape was a clear, all-purpose adhesive tape that was soon adopted worldwide. The first tape dispenser with a built-in cutting edge was invented in 1932 by John A. Borden, another 3M employee
Many types of packing tape have fiberglass strands in them making them much stronger.
There are many places where one could buy a packing tape dispenser. Just a few places where you could purchase a packing tape dispenser are eBay, Amazon, and Walmart.
Brown packing tape works like any other tape. This tape is stronger than duct tape and is capable of withstanding certain elements that may result in the tape coming off of the packaging.
